7Search, Prosper202 and PeerFly

Hello everybody,

I am just about ready to launch my first campaign, but I'd like to clarify a few things with you first.

I chose an offer from PeerFly, decided to split test 2 different Landing pages via Prosper202 and drive traffic from 7Search.

What I need help are the different links I am using.

1. PeerFly global offer postabck URL:
tracking.something.net/tracking202/static/gpb.php?amount=%commission%&subid=%subid1%
I got this link from Prosper202, Setup, #9 Get Postback/ Pixel, Simple Pixel.

2. Destination URL's used in my 7Search campaign:
landing.something.net/something-roatator.php
I'm using a rotator, that's why the link looks like that. I got the rotator from this article.

3. Destination URL's used on my Landing pages. 1 for each LP:
landing.something.net/something1/?t202id=939&c1=###KEYWORD###&c2=###AFFID###&c3=### RID###&t202kw=
landing.something.net/something2/?t202id=146&c1=###KEYWORD###&c2=###AFFID###&c3=### RID###&t202kw=
I got these 2 links from Propser202, Setup, #8 Get Links.

Is something missing? Am I correctly passing ###KEYWORD, AFFID and RID variables to Prosper202?

Thank you very much!

    For sub id tracking you need to use the following variables in Prosper202:

    [[subid]]
    [[c1]]
    [[c2]]

    Thanks for the reply. Would a link in the following format be correct:

    landing.something.net/something1/?t202id=939&c1=[[subid]]&c2=[[c1]]&c3=[[c2]]&t202kw=###KEYWORD###-###AFFID###-###RID###

    As far as I understand [[subid]], c1 and c2 are for Prosper202, while ###KEYWORD###, AFFID and RID at the end are for 7Search tracking. Is this correct or is this option correct:

    landing.something.net/something1/?t202id=939&c1=[[subid]]&c2=[[c1]]&c3=[[c2]]&t202kw=

    ...without the 7Search variables at the end.

    Please let me know and thank you!

    You have everything setup properly in your original post. I would probably put the ###KEYWORD### at the end of the link:
    landing.something.net/something2/?t202id=146&c1=###AFFID###&c2=###RID###&t202kw=### KEYWORD###

    That's just preference though. Your postback is setup properly as well. As long as you're passing [[subid]] into s1 of your trkur link when you setup your campaign in P202 then you're good to go!

      I'd like to bump this thread with an update and a question. Propser202 seems to be tracking everything except referal ID's. As far as I understand this report should be available under Prosper202, Overview, Group overview.

      However, there's nothing there. Is this because of how I format my links? Currently:
      landing.something.net/something1/?t202id=939&c1=###KEYWORD###&c2=###AFFID###&c3=### RID###&t202kw=

      If I change to what Luke suggested, will it work then?
      landing.something.net/something2/?t202id=146&c1=###AFFID###&c2=###RID###&t202kw=### KEYWORD###

      Also, if I do change the links, will Prosper202 still be able to track everything properly and not get mixed up? As far as I understand all I'd have to do is change the links on my Landing pages.

      Thank you!

        Ok, the following link is definitely incorrect as it's not tracking Referal IDs, while everything else works just fine.
        landing.something.net/something1/?t202id=939&c1=###KEYWORD###&c2=###AFFID###&c3=### RID###&t202kw=

        Now I see 2 different options. First one was pointed out by Luke and includes moving Keyword variable to the end, like so:
        landing.something.net/something2/?t202id=146&c1=###AFFID###&c2=###RID###&t202kw=### KEYWORD###

        But there's another option, as pointed out by Crams. In this one Affid and Rid are included in the same variable, like so:
        landing.something.net/something2/?t202id=146&c1=###AFFID###-###RID###&t202kw=###KEYWORD###

        My questions are:
        1. Which of the above is correct?
        2. Can I change these links without doing anything in Prosper202 and it will be able to track the same offer without an interruption? If not, then which steps do I need to setup again?

        And if nobody knows I'll test both of these links tomorrow and post back my results.
        Thank you!

      I am, but I'm not getting referral ID's tracked, everything else works fine.

    When I used 7search, Bevo would merge ###AFFID###-###RID### together for better reporting of these tokens.

    Both of the answers above are correct, but I have a different problem. I am using a rotator script as my 7search destination url.

    The problem is that I don't know how to pass AFFID and RID values through the rotator. This is the link I was using:
    landing.something.net/something-roatator.php

    Now I thought I'd simply append AFFID and RID at the end, so the new link would be:
    landing.something.net/something-roatator.php?t202c1=###AFFID###-###RID###&t202kw=###KEYWORD###

    But that didn't work, so I also tried including a random t202id, like so:
    landing.something.net/something-roatator.php?t202id=1234&c1=###AFFID###-###RID###&t202kw=###KEYWORD###

    But that doesn't work either.

    So, how can I pass these values through the rotator?

    The script can be found here, notice how it passes keyword values.

    Help would be very appreciated.

    OK I am working in 7 search buying traffic - I have what I believe to be a convertible email submits offer for Ipads. I thought this would be good for testing. spent $5 dollars and got some good numbers till I saw that I was not tracking conversions. My max bounty account doesn't show any funds so I don't think I have any conversions yet but I know I need to track the conversions. need help, got 12 K impressions with only 68 clicks and I again "assume " no conversions. Getting adds at .5 cent a click and ranking #1 but only for 14 keywords. Thank you to who ever can help me, joined the forum looking for help in analyzing my failures properly.
